Thomas Frank and Liverpool begins discussion
Share
As they continue to look for a new manager, Liverpool has opened negotiations with 50-year-old Thomas Frank, the manager of Brentford.
A Tipsbladet story claims that Thomas Frank is being considered by Liverpool to be their future manager. The Brentford boss is a part of their shortlist and the Reds have began negotiations as they hunt for the best Jurgen Klopp replacement.
Liverpool is still looking for someone to replace Klopp.
Klopp declared at the beginning of the season that he would be leaving the Merseyside club at the end of the current campaign. And ever since, Liverpool has been searching for the ideal applicant for the position.
Their top target, Xabi Alonso, ultimately made the decision to remain with Bayer Leverkusen. The Reds were then compelled to consider additional choices from their shortlist.
Liverpool has looked at two candidates: Arne Slot of Feyenoord and Ruben Amorim of Sporting CP. The Reds are thinking about adding him to their bench because both have produced amazing results for their respective teams.
Thomas Frank On the Liverpool radar?
Another person they have their eye on is Thomas Frank of Brentford. When the 50-year-old took over as the Bees’ manager in 2018, he performed admirably. He has given them a total makeover, aided in their elevation, and helped them become well-known in the English premier league.
With his years of Premier League management under his belt, the Reds believe he would be a fantastic replacement for Klopp. Frank’s play style differs from Liverpool’s in that it is more offensive, but this is largely because of his financial constraints. The theory is that he may play a dominant brand of football if he acquires the players he desires.
The Reds want to start him on their bench in the upcoming season as a result. They have had their eye on the 50-year-old for some time now, and they have now started talking about his appointment. Frank’s group met with owners’ representatives of the Merseyside club to talk about the Liverpool job.
Although the meeting’s specifics haven’t been made public yet, Liverpool has taken the initiative, and Frank is a strong contender to succeed Klopp at Anfield.
More news…..
Jose Mourinho has already spoken on the shortlist for the new Liverpool manager.
Some Liverpool supporters are contemplating the most unexpected course of action after Jose Mourinho’s attendance at Craven Cottage the day before the club’s manager search was widely publicised.
Liverpool defeated Fulham 3-1 on Sunday to keep their title aspirations alive, and former Chelsea and Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho was in the stands.
Although the reason for his absence is yet unknown, Ruben Amorim’s near-certainty as Jurgen Klopp’s replacement on Monday has created some curiosity.
While some view it as the worst conceivable choice for the club, others see it as a way to pad the box office until more worthy candidates surface.
It’s questionable if he would actually be taken into consideration given that Liverpool’s requirements are centred on youthful managers who play offensive football and feel at ease elevating from within.
From Mourinho’s perspective, there is an admission that he is not one of their stated candidates, Sam Wallace of the Telegraph reports.
Wallace adds that Mourinho “notes that the current shortlist does not feature his name,” and that his past associations with Manchester United “would likely rule him out.”
“I don’t want to stop at 65 just because I’m 61. Not at all, Mourinho remarked. “My career still has a long way to go.”
“My ideal job description is ‘head coach,’ because sometimes a job title is just one aspect of a job description,” he continued.
“I want to do it. to hold the position of coach. To be the squad leader who concentrates on player development and match preparation.
It’s thought that Liverpool is posting job openings for a “head coach” position, which would transfer authority from the manager to the boardroom.
“The club’s desire and need for a coach with my background and level of desire could really make a difference,” Mourinho went on.
“And how much empathy and feeling I could get from the structure.”
Though it’s improbable and most likely an unhappy decision, it’s noteworthy that the odds on Mourinho taking over as Liverpool manager have drastically decreased.
Bookies rank him as their fourth favourite, behind only Amorim, Roberto De Zerbi, and Arne Slot.
